This is for any one having trouble returning to stock.This is a out of the box nearly stock,nearly meaning its AreaRom themed.Its in a zip format so all you have to do is Flash it like any other rom. All the bloat ware is still in it,nothing removed.

By installing this you do so on your own accord, I/We will not be help liable if your phones blows up,screams for help,or does crazy stuff. If you plan on returning it to ST you need to get a jig (ebay)to clean it all up so no trace of it being romed and or rooted will show.use the second down load one for this as the first is themed

What is the difference between the below quoted stock zip file in post 1 of this thread:"Heres one Straight out of the box Stock nothing added nothing removed. As Stock as you can get it. Flash it in CWM

Aside from zip vs restore, the Centura_Stock.zip file only contains boot.img, META-INF folder, and system folder, while the stock.zip\2013-06-13.21.57.10\ folder seems to contain more pieces including cache, data, and system tar files and boot and recovery img files - so it seems to me that the stock.zip file potentially restores more pieces back to stock?

Maybe you can comment more on the differences one would get between using the Centura_Stock.zip zipped restore directory vs the stock.zip file?

I also noticed the problem of it not returning back to the stock kernel while cooking up rom with the mj1 update. In your update script you forgot to unpack the stock boot.img. I'm uploading my updated stock rom now with the stock kernel and I can post a link if people want

I have not tried this one yet but I hope it works I have flashed. Clockwork recovery used Odin an several other methods to get this damn phone back it is amazing rooted but damn if you mess up as I did. Thanks in advance for your help an zip for I'm sure it took time out of your life an I appreciate it
